Danny,
Your math needs some work. If both spouses in a family work and each takes a 3% cut, their aggregate cut is 3%, not 6%. A hypothetical example -- each makes 50,000 a year. Each takes a 3% cut. Total pay -- 100k. Total cut -- 3k.
You are right, math was never my best subject. The idea I was trying to get across is that the impact on those families is much greater than a family with one party working in the private sector. Thanks for setting me straight.
